Drove to Ohio, it was Barely raining, but the Wedding happened anyway We sat apart, and I think We saw each other, but then A second later, looked away And they said their vows in spite of us And walked back down the aisle Looking hopeful By 9 PM I'd had enough But I stuck it out, cuz I Was feeling hopeful We sent them off with all our Expectations, saying "Must be easy, must be nice" The crowd was pulling us in Different directions, and so You went yours and I went mine But they drove away in front of us And waved back through the window Looking hopeful And I hate think that some of us Just don't have what it takes To be that hopeful Cuz something tells me hope Is not as easy as it looks At a wedding Sitting 20 feet away And something tells me hope Is not as simple as it feels When you're watching Thinking, I'll get there someday And something tells me hope Is twice as hard As seeing someone that you loved Dancing slow with someone new And something tells me hope Is twice as painful As the self-inflicted doubts That made it hard To be hopeful For you I wanna be hopeful for you I tried to be hopeful Drove to Ohio, it was Barely raining, but the Wedding happened anyway
